Is acetone better than rubbing alcohol?
This is not quite correct. Acetone is a far better solvent to use with the coarse salt than rubbing alcohol. It's not even close. Anything that's not carbonized will dissolve nearly immediately. Available as non-scented nail polish remover at tons of stores.
Is isopropyl alcohol safe to use?
Keep in mind that isopropyl alcohol is safe to use in small amounts on the skin, but it used to be used as a form of anaesthetic but it is not safe to inhale large amounts of it as it can cause problematic side effects. If you are using large amounts on a regular basis, I would recommend wearing a good face mask, like painter quality or similar. I mean, it is a toxic poison; you should not be breathing it all of the time.
Can you dilute alcohol with water?
Plus, you can just dilute it with pure water to bring it to 70%, reducing the price of the alcohol even further.
Can you drink 99% braun?
It's not the right concentration to use as an antiseptic/disinfectant, that's 70%. You can't drink it , since it's not ethyl alcohol. It's basically only useful for swimmers ear or to clean electronics. Can use 99% with the refill packs to refill the braun clean and charge packs for their electric razors.
